a Dealer Says That They Vary Almost as
Rapidly as Feminine Fashions.
There is nothing man is more fas-
tidiOus and particular about than his
cigars. In former times the shape was
not thought Of at all, and only the color
and appearance of the tobacco were
given consideration. Some smokers
preferred cigars in certain state of
''greenness. 5" Others would smoke only
a speckled cigar. So little attention
was given 10 the shape that this subject
was htterly ignored by the maqufact-
urers. who bent their entire energies
to making happy combinations OF
different grades of tobacco. A few
years ago all shapes were nearly the
the same, the difference being only in
the length They were of even thick
ness, tapering bluntly at one end. Now,
however, things are different, and
well-re@ulated store has in stock dozens
of different shapes. Ii has gone so far

: A prominent Chestnut street retailer
said: You seldom see in these days a
nice round cigar, because they have the
appearance of having been nodded, and
smokers viii not buy them. The most
popular shape at present is thick and
bunchy near the end to be lighted and
tapering gradually toward the butt.
The very latest shape, however, is this
idea carried to the extreme-that is,
very thick near the fire end and shaping
to sharp and long point. There is a
medium between these two shapes and
we have some customers who will not
smoke any other shape. Neither the
retailers nor the manufacturers like to
handle these for many reasons. None
but very experienced man can make
good smoking cigar of this shape, and
even for him it is very slow work. There
is difficulty, too, in packing them. A
great deal of attention is paid to the
shape nowadays, and when n, particular
brand happens to make good hit it is
made up in all possible shapes and
sizes. Philadelphia Record.

THE HAWAIIAN RACE.

It's Final and Complete Disappearance
Con6dentlally Predicted.
Hawaiians would have been socially
better of, it is openly asserted, had no
European ever been permitted to land
upon the shores OF the kingdom As
matters now stand, the race is fast dis
appearing, owing to the introduction
of certain forms of vice heretofore un-
known among the natives there, while
that hateful disease introduced by for
eigners into these islands indelibly
marks the features of both Kanakas
and Washines alike, fulfilling the text
of the Scriptural assertion that the
sins of the father viii be visited upon
the children, etc.
Nevertheless Hawaii, in nearly every
respect, justly deserves the attention it
has been receiving for years at the
hands of citizens Of the United States.
The natives are to be encouraged in
rheir effort to compete with their white
brethren. There are many Kanakas
who lack thrift and who do not possess
the requisite amount Of stamina which
is needed to insure success in life, vet
such as these may be instructed to such
a degree IS to render them capable
of at least providing for them
selves.
In the American navy are many native
Hawaiians, who, in the experience Of the
writer, have always proved to be good
'umored Yielding in temper and, as a
rule. generous to a fault. Being in the
main active and intelligent beings, they
make excellent sailors. In like manner
the investing in Hawaiian property and
the employment of native help at fair
wages might result benedcially to not
only the capitalist, but would prove of
great advantage to the Hawaiian peo-
pie Cor. Boston Bulletin.

waguer's Manner Of Composing.

1t IS impossible to speak with certainty
about Wagner's manner Of composing.
He often laughed heartily when telling
about some composer, whom he had
visited and found with q long pipe in
his mouth engaged N completing a
symphony, and who had complacently
shown his COZ position, turning back

crying out while designating certain pas

grows angry; now it IS becoming dra-
matte; here | let loose a tLunderbOIt;
here we begin the down grade, and now
quiet again, tie last word coming
through a cloud Of tobacco smoke. 1t is
not necessary to say that Wagner could
never compose in this manner. \ glance
into his scores win disclose the exalted
seriousness with which he approached
his task and the superearthly regions in
which ne scared when he created his
ideal characters. BY the time that he

Prison life in Siberia k of many varie- ties, according Co the offense of different individuals and the sentences which haye been decreed iu their eases. The lowest sentence is tO simple hanishment for three years, and the highest Co hard labor for life The simple exile without imprisOn- ment is appointed tO live in certain town, district or province. and must re- port tO the police at stated intervals He may engage in certain specified ocCupa- tious. or rather in any occupation which is not on prohibited list; for example, he may teach music or painting, but he may not teach languages, as they afford the op- portunity for Qropcgating revolutionary tdeas. He may become merchant. farmer, mechanic, contractor or anything else of that sort, and it nOt infrequently happens that prison exiles enjoy a degree of pros perity in their upyv homes that they did not have in European Russia EXlles and ,their sons have become millOu-ires in ls.beria: @ former Vanderbilt of IrAOotsk, |, the capital of Eastern Siberia, was the son of an exile serf. his enormous fortune having b-eu gained iu tAo overland tea trade.
 Many exiles become so attached to Si- baria that they remain there after their term of banishment is ended, but it should be understood that their cases are the eN- captions rather than the rule. The wife and immature children of an exile may follow or accompany him at the expense of the government, but cannot return to Europe until his term of service has eX- pired. The object of exile is Co furnish q population to this sparSely inhabited re- zion. and it goes without saying that a family man is much more likely to be n good citizen when his wife and children are with him than when they are thou sands of miles away. The name of ''pri5- onern or "exilc" Is never applied Co the bauished individuals; in the language Of the people they are called ''unfortunates, ' and in official documents they are termed involuntary eInigrants. .''-Thomas ".

THAT earthquake was strange vlsi- tor to ArlZons. We are assured by those who have had access to the old records of the mission fathers and have resd the history of this Territory cover ing a period of nearly three hundred years, that no seismic disturbance has been known here during the last three centuries. Geologis;s claim ths; the earih's crust is very thick and solid throughout Arizona and Sonors, and therefore such disturbances as occurred on Tuesday must necessarily have been intensely severe at its most active point. The telegram from Fl Paso place the time of its appearance there before it was felt in Tucson by twenty minutes, allowing for the difference ID local time, which would indicate that the wave passed from east 10 west or else II move from north to south covering q very wide path. The eArthqake in California on Tuesday morning also suggests its intimate connection with that of Tues day afternoon in thIs city, which would give it a general direction from the northwest 10 the southeast, It is prob able that the news received to-day will settle the question of the route of the tremblor. but it cannot account for the strange visitation ArIzona has been hon. ored with.

How seal Meat |. Cooked.

Seal meat as cooked by the natives IS Of a dirty brick red tint, owing 10 the fact that when killed the seal is simply skinned, the blood remaining in the car csss, acting as co!o-ing matter Co the meat. To unCccUstomcd stomachs seal meat is unn2latable, its taste resembling fish more than flesh, while the oily Odor Is of course prevalent; but if when newly caught a seal is blci and the flesh allowed to soak for a few hours, the meat, either fried Or baked, becomes palatable. When frozen there Is scarcely any flavor percep- tibia in the meat.
 One of the sights that a warm spring in the month of May affords Co the observer. is the number Of seals that cover the ice Young pups, scarcely a month old, lie in ur0Ximity to their dams, sometimes wan deriug away from their air holes and ut te.ing plaiut.ye cries like the bleat Of a lamb At this season Of the year the pups can De taken with the hand, and the slei dogs make excursions upon the ice for the purpose of catching these helpless little animals, which are scarcely larger than young lamb.-San Francesca Chronicle
